Your editing managed to turn my letter on its head, conveying the opposite of what I intended to convey, namely a dislike and aversion of organisations such as JVFP for the aid they are giving the people who wish to destroy us in the same way those misguided souls of the Judenrat helped the Nazis. Even your heading was misleading.

Due to space constraints, your letter unfortunately had to be cut – definitely not “bowdlerised”. We are comfortable that your message, as you put in the above explanation, did come across in last week’s letter, but we are more than happy to print your explanation for sake of clarity. Space was the only issue in shortening your letter, which was very insightful. – Editor
